Description

Our organic ceremonial grade Matcha is grown by Henta-san, a 2nd generation tea farmer whose property spans across 45 acres of the Kagoshima prefecture of Japan, surrounded by dense forests and small mountains.  The tea is shade grown for a portion of the season, harvested in the spring, and stone ground resulting in a vibrant green and deliciously smooth Matcha Green Tea.

Organic shade-grown matcha is considered a super food, rich in antioxidants, polyphenols, a range of beneficial vitamins and minerals, as well as the combination of caffeine and l-theanine that results in a focused and relaxed alertness.  Matcha will give you a more balanced and jitter-free energy boost throughout the day, without a peak and crash commonly experienced with coffee.

Whisk in hot water for a traditional cup, add frothed milk for a matcha latte, add to smoothies, or get creative with drinks like matcha lemonade and matcha soda.  Matcha can also be shaken vigorously in a bottle of cold water for a quick nutritious energy boosting beverage.

Makes approximately 40 servings.

2.  Add 3-4 oz 175 degree (not boiling) water.

3.  Whisk in a zig zag motion until well mixed and light froth forms.
